The entry by Canada Business Blogs “Hiring for the Right Fit” discusses the criteria often looked at during an interview such as a hardworking nature, strong leadership skills, and ability to work well in a team, but stresses the importance of not disregarding the significance of a potential candidates values. In my opinion the basis of this concept has the potential to be extremely successful – not only does this increase the likelihood of company values matching employee values, but it also extends the probability of a cohesive and well-engaged staff. As a positive residual effect, productivity would therefore increase. In this new dynamic world, employers are beginning to see the need and necessity to expand the restraints of a traditional interview. Techniques such as asking to illustrate examples of leadership by retelling tails of past experiences will help reveal the true value of each job candidate you look to hire. This new concept of hiring based also upon values will ensure a greater likelihood of company-employee values alignment, so success can be propelled forward beyond previous bounds.
